Folks--
I have heretofore imported IGES files without much trouble. This evening I imported an IGES file and quite a bit of stuff seemed to be missing, so I sent the same file to a friend with SolidWorks to see what he got when he opened it. Huge. Difference. See attached. The one with all of the nice stuff is what he got, the one with half a case is what I got.
These are the SAME file. I know that under the hood SW and Alibre are very different, but I had thought that opening a file was opening a file. Any thoughts or input are very welcome.
Thank you to all and happy holidays.
